Taymur Mirza
B.A. (Mathematics, Computer Science),
M.A. (Applied Educational Leadership & Management – in Progress)
|
As a social entrepreneur interested in the field of Education management and promotion, Taymur Mirza established, in 1996, the first International Baccalaureate (www.ibo.org) world School, for students aged 3 to 18 years, in Pakistan and is currently involved in the day-to-day management of the concern. Whilst still involved with the school, he has been provided numerous opportunities by the affiliate International Baccalaureate Organization in the capacity of education program evaluator, presenter, subject examiner and workshop leader.
The exposure to education commenced in the first year of reading Mathematics at Rutgers University in New Jersey, U.S.A. Taymur Mirza may have accepted the offer to be a peer tutor, by the Mathematics Department of the University, as an opportunity to earn income from this part-time job. However, the experience in tutoring his peers at college developed an affinity for teaching and education. During these informative, developmental years his passion for education was overshadowed by his pursuit of becoming an Actuary Fellow. With the achievement of passing the initial actuary exams, Taymur Mirza was selected for the highly sought internship program at Prudential Property & Casualty Insurance Company situated in Holmdel, New Jersey.
The return to Pakistan, soon after his graduation from Rutgers University, landed him in an unexpected role of providing private Mathematics tutorials to students writing the British General Certificate of Educations’ Ordinary and Advanced level Mathematics examination. The success of this offered service in record time with attractive monetary gains only confirmed the opportunity in providing quality education in Pakistan. This led to conducting a marketing survey, preparing financial model for an IB world School, raising of equity capital from the private sector and launching of The International School, the first and world school in Pakistan.
As Secretary of the company Board, he is currently finalizing expansion plans for Tyms Education Ltd, the management firm which owns and manages The International School.
He serves as a Trustee of Indus Earth, a non-profit organization committed to empowering the “poor” and of NITRO, a non –profit committed to the promotion of sporting activities in Karachi, Pakistan.
